Dan has put together a simple yet effective EMOM consisting of the Ski Erg, Air bike and the rowing machine.

Set your clock for 20 mins and use the following machines until you hit the set calories within a minute and then move onto the next piece of kit

A1. 8-12 calories skit erg
B1. 8-12 calories air bike
C1. 8 -12 calories rowing machine
D1. Rest

EMOMs (every minute on the minute) are an excellent way to get volume in your training without over exerting yourself.

Be careful though, go off too quickly in the first couple of rounds and you will suffer towards the end.
